    Great Day On The Water

    6 Hour Trip • 3 adults

    Can highly recommend this trip. My two teenage sons took this trip as a day away from CP crowds. Caught 67 fish and this was a charter where we actually got to fish (bait, cast, reel them in). Taken several Erie area chapters and by far the best. Captain was First Class all the way!

    Thank you Nolan.

What's biting with Jig'n'Pig Fishing Guide in Port Clinton

The prime areas on the shallow reefs close to deep water can easily give you your limit of catches. Troll or drift fish for Walleye. And don't forget about Yellow Perch and Bass – there are some big specimens swimming around in search of their next meal.

Catfish Capitol of the World!

Aug 16, 2025 • Port Clinton
Fishing with me on Lake Erie’s Sandusky Bay offers you: the best and biggest 25ft Catfish Rig in the entire fleet, best electronics, cleanest boat, and… most fun fishing trip you’ll ever have. Today’s trip was a fun family trip. And they kept plenty for table fare.

Channel Catfish Capitol of the World

Aug 16, 2025 • Port Clinton
Our last fish today, was the biggest ?. It weighed 17.5-pounds. We had a great day on the water. They filled 2-coolers with Wild Caught Lake Erie Sandusky Bay Channel Catfish by 10:00 A.M.. Of course, all the bigger ones were thrown back. Lake Erie’s Sandusky Bay provides a great nutritional food source for thousands and thousands of Midwest residents of our country. And I’m proud to provide the fun fishing that provides the table fare.
